Totley Moor
An open moorland hill to the west of the Sheffield suburb of Totley,
I’m standing on the B6054, looking North.
The structure on the horizon (left) is a ventilation shaft for the Totley Railway Tunnel, which runs for 3.5 miles under this moor.

With these vast moorlands, it’s challenging to identify precisely where you are and what you are looking at.
The moor is within Sheffield City’s boundary in South Yorkshire, but I've identified the location as Derbyshire because it is within the Peak District National Park, which is more associated with Derbyshire than South Yorkshire.

A village situated where the River Amber joins the River Derwent.
About 6 miles south of Matlock.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambergate
River Derwent
The largest river in the Peak District and a major tributary of the River Trent, which it joins just South of Derby.
The Derwent is approximately 50 miles long and rises on the eastern flank of Bleaklow.
This day I had intended to fish The Derwent as the guest of a Derbyshire friend who has a rod on the river,
Unfortunately, the weather was so dreadful we changed our plan and spent the day at the nearby Great British Car Journey Museum.
